When we weren't ready
If we were ever 'ready'
It was enough to touch your hands
To feel them moving. like dancing with you all over again
I could prepare by waiting and watching our hands
I wasn't waiting for what was next
So much as I was feeling like I know what is next
Feeling like I can guess the fun we're going to have
And the problems we're going to have
when this is over
Feeling like I have so much work to do on myself
because you deserve better
Feeling like you see me just the way I am
and you love me better
Feeling like I'll always have that memory of your hands tracing hearts on mine
Giving me shivers I tried to hide
